00:05:41.260 yeah he's great um i hear he had a great weekend and that's pretty much all we care about um and then
00:05:49.100 we have uh jason buttrell here who is our chief researcher uh and uh and travel companion
00:05:55.820 lately he's almost like a viking cheerleader for me lately let's not go that far come on he's off to
00:06:02.820 the side you go go just keep going girl uh anyway um stew i'd love to hear i've been waiting to hear
00:06:09.980 your response to what's happening with uh donald trump and putin and then then we'll get into the
00:06:16.720 meeting that's going to go today but what was your take on putin in alaska can i start with the
00:06:22.060 media sure before the meeting the take from the media that i received for every single hour until
00:06:31.400 we got to the meeting was that donald trump loves dictators loves putin is being taken by putin is going
00:06:41.180 to give putin whatever he desires and we're going to make some terrible deal that is going to show
00:06:47.660 the you know the american way is gone he's just a he's just a sort of a uh fully owned subsidiary of
00:06:56.160 of mother russia right sure so then they come out and he has the press conference and he and putin says
00:07:03.020 we have a deal and then trump says well we don't have a deal until we have a deal
00:07:08.300 and goes through uh multiple times during his well he's very complimentary to putin as both sides
00:07:16.300 were goes through several times where he he specifically points out that we do not have a deal
00:07:21.060 and then i go back to the coverage i'm listening to i don't know one of the maybe it was cnn one of
00:07:26.540 the you know cable news networks doesn't matter in this one of the one of the things that nobody
00:07:30.800 watches anymore yes go ahead and they are immediately and have immediately switched their
00:07:36.220 position to can you believe this trump organized this big uh meeting with putin and then couldn't
00:07:43.880 get a deal done he it's a failure we we don't know what's going to come out of this but we can't say
00:07:49.920 he failed he wanted to get a deal he didn't get a deal it's like you can't have both of those
00:07:55.200 positions you can't say he's going to get a deal no matter what because he loves dictators and he loves
00:07:59.740 putin he's going to give him everything he's going to hand over all of ukraine and then the second
00:08:04.420 that doesn't happen you switch to the exact opposite position which is he didn't give enough
00:08:09.980 he didn't he didn't know how to negotiate the deal he didn't come up with the deal you can't have both
00:08:15.040 those positions and the most frustrating part about this is at some point in the next six months
00:08:19.360 there will be another story which makes them take the first position again as if it didn't already
00:08:26.320 completely fail and then they will not acknowledge any of the switches that they've made
00:08:30.880 it's infuriating to me i am so glad to hear you because that was the that was the biggest thing to
00:08:38.500 me the guy cannot win no matter what happens no matter what happened nobody could say one nice thing
00:08:46.080 about anything did you hear the argument about the red carpet he rolled out the red carpet for
00:08:51.580 vladimir putin well we didn't have a green one okay we didn't have one of another color uh i'm sorry
00:08:56.980 which carpet would you like to use we have one it's red uh i mean i just cannot take all of this and
00:09:05.600 you know to say that vladimir putin he won on the world stage go ahead go ahead vlad use those videos
00:09:12.200 of you and donald trump walking down the red carpet it looked like you and dorothy you know what i mean
00:09:21.040 and you were a munchkin and uh donald trump was dorothy she he looks like a giant compared to
00:09:27.880 to vladimir putin and then i just i know everybody's played this is just it was just so satisfying could
00:09:34.960 we please play the b2 bomber flyover i mean i just this and you know donald trump planned every bit of
00:09:43.820 this every bit of this was under his direction play the b2 bomber so there they are walking on that red
00:09:52.840 carpet and here they come screaming across the sky
00:09:58.100 now in my head this is how i this is how i see this donald trump's planning this whole thing he's
00:10:07.540 like yeah and i want the podium there we're going to be walking from the plane to the podium
00:10:10.820 and uh at that moment before we get to the podium i want that b2 bomber that is a b1b b2 b2 i want
00:10:18.580 that b2 bomber just flying right over our head and you know the military was like oh thank you mr
00:10:25.900 president yes we can do that uh and putin kind of stumbles a little bit and looks up at it i mean
00:10:32.740 you know it's cool he knows he's not being bombed but if that wasn't if that wasn't a by the way
00:10:37.840 welcome to alaska you're on our territory did you also notice what the podium said at the bottom
00:10:45.900 alaska 2025 not the u.s not you know bilateral meeting nothing alaska 2025 in red white and blue
00:11:00.220 uh i don't think putin won on this one now here's putin in the meeting here's trump and putin
00:11:07.900 putin teasing an end to the conflict in ukraine cut to me and president trump have built a very good
00:11:16.440 business-like and trustworthy contact
00:11:18.720 and have every reason to believe that moving down this path we can come
00:11:25.820 the sooner the better to the end of the conflict in ukraine thank you thank you
00:11:32.340 well thank you very much trump follows it would cut three please i believe we had a very productive
00:11:39.660 meeting there were many many points that we agreed on most of them i would say a couple of
00:11:45.040 big ones that we haven't quite gotten there but we've made some headway so uh there's no deal
00:11:52.680 until there's a deal i will call up nato in a little while i will call up uh the various people
00:12:00.500 that i think are appropriate and i'll of course call up president zelinski and tell him about today's
00:12:05.100 meeting it's ultimately up to them they're gonna have to agree with uh what marco and steve and some of
00:12:12.720 the great people from the trump administration who've come here scott and john radliff thank you
00:12:20.060 very much first of all can i just say you know he got on the plane and in the middle of the night
00:12:26.500 he's calling the world leaders after all of this he's calling the world leaders i'm tired just watching
00:12:32.920 the guy can anyone else give him credit for just he's like a nuclear power plant the guy never
00:12:41.480 ever stops i've never seen a president work this hard i mean i know other presidents and i'll give it
00:12:48.640 to you know barack obama and everything else but i have never and if you're honest and you don't you
00:12:54.900 don't vote the same way i do but you're honest you would say the same thing i've never seen anyone go
00:13:02.380 this hard all the time he doesn't seem to sleep so he gets on the plane and he starts calling the
00:13:10.700 world leaders now today germany uh maloney prime minister from uh italy france england's prime
00:13:21.060 minister who else is coming in and zelinski i has anybody ever seen that happen before
00:13:28.740 the president of the united states says hey god by the way guys i think we should all meet at the
00:13:33.940 white house come to my come to my house we're going to have a little meeting and they all show up
00:13:39.780 i mean again you have to just if you're honest recognize the history here this is historic i have
00:13:51.520 never maybe since fdr i have never seen the united states um call world leaders together and say hey
00:14:01.320 we all have to meet the u.n i can see them all meeting at the u.n but this is the united states
00:14:07.360 taking her position in the world back this is the united states saying yeah we we don't follow
00:14:15.780 anybody else we don't follow the u.n we don't need the u.n we don't need anything else we're the leader
00:14:23.000 in the world and we're taking the leadership uh position so why don't we all get together now there's
00:14:30.220 this the press again saying well you know why they're all coming because he's gonna be a bully on
00:14:37.260 zelinski oh god would you shut up it is honestly it is like the press it's it's if we hired
00:14:47.120 mrs olsen's third grade class to be the press that the the charges are so infantile over and over and
00:14:57.460 over again that i just can't take it so what does he say now it was interesting to hear what he just
00:15:06.900 said in that clip where he said we've come up with some things we don't have a solid deal yet
00:15:12.440 but we've come up with some things that if we can get them done would be very very good
00:15:16.820 towards peace one of those things and i think it was was it best and who was it that said that we
00:15:24.540 have an article five like uh agreement whitkoff so whitkoff was on i don't know one of the sunday
00:15:33.440 shows and he said we have an article five like agreement well that is game changing let me just
00:15:42.140 explain what article five means article five in case you don't know article five is part of the u.n
00:15:48.620 or sorry the nato treaty and that's the part of the treaty that says an attack on one is an attack on
00:15:56.240 all that's the reason why russia does not want ukraine to be part of nato because if there's
00:16:05.820 ever a skirmish at the border and russia attacks that means it's world war automatically now
00:16:14.640 we've never had to invoke article five i don't know at this point if article five means all that
00:16:21.160 much means what it used to mean but at least it is an official treaty this is why putin did not
00:16:29.200 want nato there because it's a gateway right into russia for nato so he's like no nato countries i want
00:16:35.720 a buffer between nato and russia if donald trump did indeed get putin to agree to article five that
00:16:48.720 means the peace is guaranteed by us you know this last five years and then all of a sudden there's
00:16:56.640 war we have this article five hanging around our necks i'm not thrilled about that but that is a huge
00:17:04.000 concession that everyone should recognize if if putin gave that up that's enormous enormous
00:17:13.320 here's my guess on what donald trump has he's given he said you have to accept an article five
00:17:20.740 i'm going to try to convince them to say crimea is over okay and and you know except for israel
00:17:29.500 this is the way the world works you win something in war and they take it and then it's yours it's
00:17:37.000 yours the winner gets that land only the united states has given the land back that we have
00:17:43.560 conquered because we're not a conquering nation russia is a conquering nation okay they won that
00:17:51.580 in the war barack obama did nothing that's over was it mistake yes you want to complain don't complain
00:17:59.080 to donald trump call barack obama so i think that's off the table and the dunbas uh area uh the dunbas
00:18:08.900 area is right now and if you listen to them what putin has been saying is he wants all of this all the
00:18:16.240 way into crimea or into a kiev he wants all this territory but if you listen to the language now from
00:18:23.960 both sides what putin and zelinski are both saying now which is new is maybe just the occupied territory
00:18:36.000 goes to russia so not anything new not anything in dispute just where they have their troops and
00:18:44.460 it's occupied that's about half of the dunbas reason correct jason yes about half so that's about half
00:18:52.340 which would be the buffer zone that putin has been wanting he wants a buffer zone between nato article 5
00:19:00.160 and uh and russia so you give him that the rest of it goes to ukraine it's a reasonable ending to this
00:19:10.720 thing now we could just go with the press and say that's either too much uh for russia or uh not enough
00:19:21.100 for uh ukraine or you know we have to have all of it back none of those things are going to work
00:19:27.200 which means you're just going to have more and more war do you know that there were 20 000 russians
00:19:34.740 20 000 russians according to the u.s that were killed last month 20 000 people died so if you
00:19:46.740 remember vietnam was what 55 000 people died 55 000 20 last month i don't know i think it might be in
00:19:56.940 the best interest of all of us as humans to end this war if we can come up with a reasonable thing
00:20:03.380 that both sides agreed to but both sides are going to have to give stuff up
00:20:06.840 pray for peace pray for peace this is the closest we've been on this one for a while all right let me
00:20:14.860 tell you about our sponsor uh then we'll come back more on this i mean this is pretty much what
00:20:19.720 we're going to be talking about uh all day today let me tell you about rough greens unfortunately dogs
00:20:24.560 especially as they start to get older are far more susceptible to cancer than we are one of the
00:20:29.160 biggest reasons is this stuff we're putting in their bowls you know our dogs were healthier when
00:20:34.640 they would eat table scraps i find that hard to believe but it's true they were healthier when
00:20:39.860 we would feed them what what we were eating um now we give them this dog food that has been
00:20:46.540 packaged uh it has been processed it's been cooked it's such high temperature so it can last on a shelf
00:20:52.920 for two years and it's not healthy for you you would never feed that to your child ever you wouldn't feed
00:20:58.700 it to yourself you wouldn't feed that to somebody you don't like why would you feed that to your dog
00:21:04.360 it's dead what you have to do the basic is put all of the live nutrients back in that have been
00:21:11.700 lost through the high heat processing you need the natural enzymes the vitamins uh you need the
00:21:17.720 probiotics rough greens is not a dog food it's that bridge that helps take and put everything in that
00:21:24.520 has been cooked out of all of your dog's food get a free jump start trial bag for your dog today it's a
00:21:29.780 20 value you'll get you'll get it for free you just cover the shipping i'm telling you you'll see
00:21:34.660 a huge difference in your dog at least i did stew did pat did everybody i know who's tried rough greens
00:21:39.780 with their dog they swear by it because you'll see a difference in the energy and really the clear
00:21:45.300 eyes and the coat and everything else roughgreens.com promo code beck r-u-f-f-greens.com promo code beck
00:21:51.360 go there now 10 seconds and back to the show
00:21:53.620 four right now cut four here's cut four listen critics of president trump will say the pomp and
00:22:11.600 circumstances the pomp and circumstance the red carpet the warm handshake that president trump
00:22:18.420 simply lost that that putin gained there just by being on the world stage and walking down a red
00:22:24.700 carpet with the president your reaction to that well i mean critics of president trump are always
00:22:29.860 going to find something to criticize you don't pay attention to it anymore but i will tell you this
00:22:33.300 putin is already on the world stage he's already on the world stage the guy's conducting a full-scale
00:22:38.280 war in ukraine he's already on the world stage he has the world's largest tactical nuclear arsenal in
00:22:43.120 the world and the second largest strategic nuclear arsenal in the world he's already on the world stage
00:22:47.940 when i hear people say that oh it elevates him well we all we do is talk about putin all the time all
00:22:52.800 the media's done is talk about putin all the time for the last four or five years that doesn't mean
00:22:56.640 he's right about the war that doesn't mean he's justified about the war put all that aside it means
00:23:00.840 you're not going to have a peace agreement without between russia and ukraine you're not going to end
00:23:04.920 a war between russia and ukraine without dealing with putin that's not that's just common sense i
00:23:11.100 shouldn't have to say it so people can say whatever they want ultimately at the end of the day
00:23:15.660 we have to get the russian side to agree to things that they don't want to agree to if we're
00:23:20.180 going to have peace if not they'll just be a war they'll keep killing each other and life will go on
00:23:24.280 in america and in the rest of the world but not for ukraine can i tell you something uh we're going

00:25:38.180 apologist i think putin is a an absolutely evil guy no ifs ands or buts i think he's a guy who
00:25:45.940 looks at the cold war and says well that ended the wrong way i mean he has said those words um he believes
00:25:52.860 in you know the former soviet state um he is a dictator he is bloodthirsty he is a killer um so i want
00:26:02.580 to make sure that everything that needs to be said about vladimir putin uh is said because he is you
00:26:10.620 know is a rattlesnake a good pet the answer is no that's what everybody says the actual answer is
00:26:21.140 yes as long as you never forget it's a rattlesnake the minute you start treating it as a pet like a puppy
00:26:29.500 dog you're dead so is putin somebody you can negotiate with yes as long as you always remember
00:26:38.740 he's vladimir putin um but i think well jason give me your view on vladimir putin and and this
00:26:48.820 whole situation vladimir putin i i believe is i mean i i agree with you i think that it's very rare
00:26:54.980 uh in the world to have someone that sees the interests of their country and they're willing
00:27:00.220 to take certain steps to ensure that their country is taken care of and what i mean by that is willing
00:27:08.220 to just invade a country over it um willing to you know be a bloodthirsty killer over it that that's rare
00:27:15.220 it's even more rare to have the cartoon villain as a leader like kim jong-un kim jong-un is a total
00:27:23.920 cartoon character yes um it's also very rare for a country to ignore geopolitical laws and rules
00:27:30.640 like a hitler and go off and just try and you know conquer an entire continent that is also very rare
00:27:36.720 most of the people fall in line of someone like uh i don't know uh not sure that the type of leader
00:27:44.160 basically pick 90 of the leaders out there they're willing to go so far putin is willing to go those
00:27:50.200 extra few steps but he's not a cartoon character so what you can always expect from vladimir putin
00:27:55.280 is he is willing to do the things to ensure the safety of his country from what and him and him
00:28:02.100 which is also a dictatorial regime the regime correct willing to correct so that that's you there's ways
00:28:09.240 that you can predict how this is going to go based off of those rules so that's always when you're when
00:28:14.880 you're looking at this how do you think this is going to go what do you think we end up with if
00:28:21.220 anything so i i think that um vladimir putin initially wanted to take all of ukraine because
00:28:26.940 that solved most of their issues yes that that keeps nato out that keeps if you look at a map
00:28:32.100 you know that the border of ukraine and russia is just a couple hundred miles from moscow so for us
00:28:37.760 in our own perspective that's like accepting nuclear weapons in havana no it's not even that
00:28:43.740 it's like new jersey exactly right right so it was a geopolitical you know paramount for him to take
00:28:50.620 ukraine he failed at that so now what he's looking at i need some kind of buffer so armies can't go
00:28:57.620 through ukraine nato armies can't go through ukraine and get to moscow in an hour he's got to do that so
00:29:03.240 what he's building here i think is that now he's established a buffer now what he's looking for
00:29:09.200 is an excuse to give to his people look he'll say the special military operation that's what he loves
00:29:14.580 to call it it succeeded we have our buffer zone i can claim victory for you his people now what the
00:29:21.760 he also has to leave open for the europeans and for ukraine is a way to also say we won we stopped
00:29:28.680 him he did not take ukraine if both sides can do that and i think we're getting hints that we're
00:29:34.040 getting close to that the article 5 like yes uh security if it's real if it's real that's big yes
00:29:40.560 zelinski saying uh you can't have territory that you haven't already conquered as you pointed out yes
00:29:46.420 that's an interesting hint that means that he might be willing to accept crimea going their way
00:29:50.940 and other those areas providing that buffer zone and there's a new pullout that shows from ukraine
00:29:56.540 that uh the ukrainians uh don't want to give any land back but stew who is so good at reading polls
00:30:03.820 that's not exactly what it says is it yeah the poll actually is they don't want to give up more land
00:30:11.160 that has already been occupied that's where the 78 percent comes in and i think that's going to be a
00:30:17.240 problem because i mean putin seems to want additional land including like these two cities that are
00:30:23.400 you know central to the defense of ukraine so that that is going to be a real problem in the
00:30:28.420 negotiations whether they don't think so if if they're not occupied that i think that's where
00:30:35.640 trump is trying to push them i agree keep the land you already have occupied i think that's where trump
00:30:42.880 is trying to push him i think and i think that's where the people is i right i think the ukraine i think
00:30:49.400 ukraine would you know a lot of different parts of this negotiation have to go a specific way but
00:30:57.080 i think there's i think there's a world in which ukraine accepts that um the problem is at least
00:31:01.560 at this point uh russia seems to be asking for more than that they seem to be asking for multiple
00:31:06.320 cities and areas that they do not currently occupy um they want that entire donbass region which
00:31:12.500 would include i don't think that's reasonable i agree and that's that that's absolutely what putin
00:31:16.980 wants if you look at a map he's he wants the area from belt right where you see belarus and ukraine
00:31:21.980 connect yeah he would love to have that area all the way down the coast of crimea because that's the
00:31:27.520 full buffer zone that's what he's going to push for it right but i don't think that's reasonable to
00:31:33.220 add that's where marco rubio's like everybody's going to have to give up something and you know i think
00:31:38.140 if ukraine can live with they conquered this land they're in this land um and just we're just drawing a
00:31:46.260 line there i think putin should be willing to accept that it's not what he wants but he would
00:31:55.260 be willing to accept that because it does give him the buffer zone does it not if he just keeps the
00:32:00.580 conquered land that he has now yes it's not the full buffer zone that he would like but it is a buffer
00:32:05.540 yeah nobody is going to get everything that they want um and i think the polling shows that that is
00:32:12.480 seemingly acceptable to the ukrainian people that if you don't if you're occupying it right now you
00:32:21.200 got to keep that we'll we can live with that um and then uh ukraine gets the article 5 which is all
00:32:30.820 they is what they said that's what started this whole thing they wanted protection from russia
00:32:36.280 and they wanted to join nato the reason why they wanted to join nato is because they wanted the
00:32:40.840 article 5 protection if russia comes in then that triggers nato to come in and fight the war against
00:32:48.760 russia that keeps them at bay so ukraine at a very high cost gets that russia at a very high cost gets
00:32:58.060 most of what they want in the in the buffer zone that's a reasonable ending right agree or disagree
00:33:06.040 no no i i agree and it also sets i mean and this is far from over so let's say there's some
00:33:10.860 guarantees that last for five ten whatever years how many ever years both sides are going to be
00:33:15.220 looking to play the chinese perspective on this and i say chinese perspective because if you look at
00:33:19.240 how they treated taiwan the chinese reluctantly gave up taiwan and we were involved providing security
00:33:25.620 guarantees correct providing weapons things like that that's what how both both sides have to be
00:33:31.060 looking to play the long game you give this up you make concessions now and the long run
00:33:36.020 the discussion is still open things may happen you can do play your little games all that you can
00:33:41.700 look towards maybe taking that back that land in some way in the future but this is what you accept
00:33:47.740 now and set up this game of chess for for longer and now at least you're not losing 1.5 million people
00:33:53.840 still um first of all i have two things first uh can we ask uh a question do are you guys
00:34:01.740 do you guys believe are you confident in the idea that vladimir putin has accepted
00:34:08.860 this uh pseudo article 5 opposition i just i have not heard him say that until i hear i because i've
00:34:17.220 heard trump officials say it but i am skeptical that he's actually agreed to this i i just haven't
00:34:23.120 heard him until i heard him until i hear him say it so when i played could you play that trump uh
00:34:28.560 sound that we played uh cut three listen to what he says we had a very productive meeting there were
00:34:34.340 many many points that we agreed on most of them i would say a couple of big ones that we haven't quite
00:34:41.900 gotten there but we've made some stop i think that's the article 5 thing we've we've made a lot
00:34:48.920 of headway we have some things where we've made agreements and then we really made some headway we
00:34:54.040 haven't really gotten there yet i think that's what he's talking about is the article 5 and then
00:35:00.580 one of his spokespeople come out and say it's article 5 we're willing to do the article 5 thing
00:35:08.220 because that's trump speaking it into existence he didn't say it with vladimir putin standing next
00:35:15.220 to him because they're still working on it and i'm sure vladimir putin or somebody else is going no
00:35:20.280 i'm not really sure about that um and uh and so he has one of his one of his uh people floated out
00:35:30.120 there to see the reaction and speak it into existence because i think that is if he can get that done if he
00:35:37.240 can get russia to accept that that's enormous enormous yeah i'm of the opinion yeah it would be
00:35:44.200 and i'm of the opinion that putin has agreed to that in some way because putin is very quick to put
00:35:50.380 these things down especially to his own people especially if he thinks that he's going to lose
00:35:54.560 public opinion within russia with ordinary russians and he has not done that yet so that's a huge signal
00:36:00.300 to me plus i think that i personally think that a line from donald trump is about territorial
00:36:05.560 concessions i think that is the major sticking point on this and that's what he's gonna have to
00:36:09.780 go back and forth with the europeans today and zelinski on what are you willing to concede
00:36:14.300 territorially because that's what you know enough about where everybody's going to come down i mean
00:36:20.460 i'm sure maloney is going to come down with trump uh germany probably will come down with trump
00:36:28.100 no probably not it's it's very hard to predict on the european side because they have more skin in
00:36:34.600 the game i know on this it's very different argument with but you get if you can get the article five
00:36:40.400 that's what they've been wanting yeah so i mean that that i mean that is such a huge concession
00:36:46.940 you know it's weird because you know what the press is going to say if if he gives up land and we have
00:36:54.480 the article five um and he gets that deal done the press is going to call him hitler and neville
00:37:02.600 chamberlain at the same time i don't know how you that works but yeah it's hitler and neville
00:37:09.240 chamberlain how but they will make that case back in just a second let me tell you about good ranchers
00:37:14.840 every time you fire up the grill you're making a choice uh you're making a choice that where you can
00:37:19.380 either support the billions of pounds of foreign meat that is coming into this country meat mysteriously
00:37:25.220 stamp product of the u.s uh in fact we should talk to who would that be who runs the uh usda is that
00:37:33.640 is that under uh rfk because that's food safety that that should not be that you should not be able to put
00:37:42.560 that little flag on beef that is coming from elsewhere you shouldn't be able to do it but they do it
00:37:49.020 anyway because it's a loophole uh so you can't trust that that's coming from america and the reason
00:37:55.100 why is a you want to know exactly what's in your beef you want to know that it is 100 born raised and
00:38:01.480 harvested here in the united states um because that is really really important not only because of the
00:38:07.980 quality but also because we have to have these ranchers and farmers why are we so to speak farming
00:38:15.740 this out to other countries it makes no sense we have to have our own food supply so here's what i
00:38:21.740 would like to recommend that you uh that you maybe do go to good ranchers not right now good ranchers.com
00:38:27.620 see what everybody is talking about see why this is a better deal for you shop american meat that you

00:39:15.260 but the most valuable part of your home isn't sitting outside for someone to break into it is
00:39:20.860 sitting inside a database online just waiting to be stolen all cyber criminals need is a few keystrokes
00:39:26.980 to forge your name and transfer your title and suddenly you're fighting to prove that the home
00:39:31.560 you spent your entire life paying for is actually yours and here's the part that catches most people

00:40:47.720 welcome to the uh glenbeck program so i don't know if you saw this tweet that came out a few hours ago
00:40:57.160 from donald trump it just says bella b-e-l-a now a lot of people are saying i was just you know
00:41:05.980 typo or whatever i don't think because we are indeed members of the press members of the press i don't think
00:41:15.140 we can leave it there i think we need to figure out what exactly he was doing there uh you know
00:41:20.640 what bella what does that what does he mean by that um well i went to work uh early today while
00:41:28.520 you were still asleep uh it's a given name of a hungarian uh composer bella somebody or other
00:41:37.400 bartok i think he's a composer and maybe he was maybe he's making something something about hungary
00:41:42.800 uh and composers i don't know uh it also in some slavic languages bella means white
00:41:50.620 now are we getting a little closer mainstream media uh it's white in the feminine form
00:41:57.900 which look at his wife slavic right feminine maybe he was maybe this was secret code
00:42:08.100 unleash the hounds let her write the letter and send that uh i don't know portuguese it means
00:42:16.560 beautiful now it could also be um maybe he was maybe he was like belated and then he stopped writing
00:42:25.640 and he was like no you know what i'm gonna wait we'll do that later so maybe he's gonna do belated
00:42:30.160 and maybe he was going to mention you know who else is b-l-a b-e-l-a bella lugosi it might have
00:42:38.880 been hey belated condolences on bella lugosi's death and he just decided you know i'm just gonna
00:42:44.860 put b-e-l-a on there and everybody will figure it out i'm just i'm just saying uh where's the press
00:42:51.560 on this one where's the press on this one uh stew can we go back to that uh poll that you had just a
00:42:59.160 a few minutes ago um sure where do they stand on crimea where do the people in ukraine stand on
00:43:05.720 that uh well i mean they are the people of ukraine are not excited about trans of anything making
00:43:12.940 anything official right like they like so the poll shows that it okay what we were talking about before
00:43:19.080 the idea that russia would get lands they don't currently even occupy right that's what's what
00:43:24.120 putin wants the ukrainian people overwhelmingly opposed to that 78 to 15 when it when it opens
00:43:30.980 up to what they do occupy which would include crimea and include these other regions um the lines
00:43:37.040 of the war right now official occupation they are overwhelmingly still against though less so 68 to 24
00:43:44.440 so they oppose uh officially recognizing russia has these territories when it comes down to whether
00:43:51.300 they're okay with it de facto like not admitting that it's happened but it kind of like the way
00:43:56.320 crimea is right now essentially where russia runs it but they don't necessarily admit it that they're
00:44:02.320 pretty split on it's 48 43 that seems to be the line where they are at least as far as the people
00:44:07.580 that's a big nuance on that and would putin accept a non-official agreement back let me tell you a little
00:44:15.440 bit about ammo square you remember the great ammo shortage of 2020 you go to stores all over the place
00:44:21.020 and uh the ammo shelves were pretty much bare there was nothing there i remember that uh even the
00:44:25.680 online options were wiped out still you remember that oh my gosh yeah you i mean i remember going
00:44:31.140 into major like gun stores and there would just be nothing i mean there was like you know just
00:44:35.120 smatterings of things that you didn't need it was impossible to get for a while it's a little bit
00:44:39.580 better now but you can't just depend on that you can't depend that it's always going to be
00:44:43.820 there when you need it you actually remember that i'm shocked really you're the most unprepared guy
00:44:52.020 i've ever seen in my life ammo square is a company that can really help you stock up on the ammo because

00:49:02.260 i was i was thinking about this and doing some research on when has any country uh been asked to
00:49:13.640 give land up that it won in a war um and you can say that it was you know their fault and everything
00:49:23.300 else but you want to make sure that you're very careful on punishment for those those uh transgressions
00:49:29.920 remember uh the aggressor really bad aggressor in world war one was germany and the world decided to
00:49:37.660 punish germany and germans didn't like it and uh that led right directly to world war ii i think
00:49:45.260 without the versailles treaty uh being done the way it was done we would have we wouldn't have had
00:49:51.400 world war ii we may not have ever seen hitler rise to power it'd be a good thing but you also have to
00:49:57.400 set a standard in saying hey bad guys you don't win when you do these things so this is a really
00:50:02.660 tough balance but there's only one country in particular in the history of the world that has
00:50:09.180 has faced uh this burden where the whole world is turning on saying you got to give this back
00:50:13.960 back in 1967 it was uh israel they were surrounded encircled and threatened with destruction by every
00:50:22.460 single neighbor every country in the region decided together they were going to attack on multiple
00:50:30.500 fronts now their intention was to wipe israel off the face of the earth but israel not only survived
00:50:37.740 it turned the tide in six days it gained territory so dramatically that the map of the middle east had
00:50:45.260 to be withdrawn dramatically they occupied huge swaths of territory in jordan and in egypt all over the
00:50:55.980 middle east all of a sudden they had all this territory and then something extraordinary happened
00:51:01.680 they said and you don't see this and russia listen carefully to this you don't see this very often
00:51:08.560 they said we don't want all this territory we want to be left alone and we really just want uh a few
00:51:17.480 buffer zones we don't need all of this land in jordan we don't need all of this land in egypt we just
00:51:24.560 want to make sure that this can't happen to us again well that's what russia is saying now whether
00:51:31.900 that's true with vladimir putin or not that's up for you to decide but what they're saying is they want
00:51:37.780 just a buffer zone away from uh nato and what ukraine is saying is we want to be part of nato because we
00:51:46.900 don't trust russia nor should they so we don't we want to uh have uh we want nato partnership basically
00:51:54.680 what they want is if russia attacks us then all of nato europe and america need to go in and fight that war
00:52:02.640 with them that's what they really want well donald trump his uh his allies came out this weekend and said
00:52:09.340 they are very close to an article 5 kind of agreement article 5 comes from uh the nato uh
00:52:17.380 charter which means it was for europe against russia anybody who attacks a nato country it's an attack
00:52:25.820 on all of us and we all band together now does does that happen well kind of it did after 9-11 not
00:52:34.160 everybody was involved but it wasn't you know it wasn't like it was intended to be but that's fine
00:52:40.260 um that's what that's what ukraine wants what russia says they want whether it's true or not i don't know
00:52:48.580 but what they say they want is a buffer zone if if russia can give up and look instead
00:52:56.080 at the israeli example of voluntarily they gave most of it back uh the sinai gaza and parts of the west
00:53:07.140 bank um they they wanted to keep as part of a buffer zone but they were in there um because it was a
00:53:17.240 buffer zone to them okay but land four times its own size paid for in blood
00:53:25.880 on an attack that they didn't do others did to them they gave all of that back in pursuit of peace
00:53:34.460 and they said look we don't we're not here for more land we just want our land and to be left alone
00:53:40.640 and have the right to exist now you've done this to us several times so we want just exactly what
00:53:46.900 you know russia could say we've been attacked by the west over and over again and they come through
00:53:51.460 this door of either poland or now they're worried about ukraine so we want a buffer zone well the
00:53:58.940 world didn't give them that buffer zone it's the disputed territories the occupied territories but
00:54:05.540 that's why israel wanted it and then they gave everything else back a nation smaller than new jersey
00:54:13.160 carved out just this little buffer zone so they had a way to protect themselves in case this would
00:54:21.420 ever happen again now compare this with russia and ukraine crimea was taken in 2014 uh in they invaded
00:54:30.400 ukraine outright in 2022 and they hold huge swaths of land under the occupation so what's the path
00:54:40.120 forward well either continued bloodshed and i just i think it's important that we put this into
00:54:46.240 perspective 20 000 russians according to the u.s 20 000 russians died last month how long did the vietnam
00:54:59.540 war go on that was a total of about 55 000 americans in one month you're almost half of the entire vietnam
00:55:09.860 war there's a lot of bloodshed and a lot of bloodshed that is happening on the other side as
00:55:16.100 well how many have the russians killed month after month after month so to stop this is there something
00:55:23.920 we can look to from 1967 you know a recognition of the reality on the ground and then some hard
00:55:31.760 choices on both sides but anchor it all in peace
00:55:36.380 marco rubio said this weekend and he's right peace demands sacrifice and israel proved that by returning
00:55:47.720 sinai to egypt in exchange for recognition and an end to the hostilities it wasn't perfect it didn't
00:55:54.160 solve every grievance but it worked and egypt and israel haven't gone to war in half a century
00:56:00.940 again it's messy it's ugly but we haven't had a war between egypt and israel in uh half a century
00:56:11.080 survival outweighs pride and here's the challenge for russia and ukraine both claim history in that deep
00:56:20.640 deep deep history in that area both claim injustice and uh ukraine uh i think you have a much more
00:56:29.820 solid claim on injustice against the russians than they do the other way um but the question is not
00:56:37.920 who's parchment who owns this land who has the oldest deed here the question is are you willing
00:56:43.300 to trade land for more lives are you willing to give back or give up enough to stop the killing and
00:56:51.520 that's not just on the ukraine side that is also on the russian side no other country has done what
00:56:58.680 israel does nobody no there's no example uh like this no other modern country has been attacked by
00:57:05.420 multiple neighbors survived expanded and then voluntarily gave all that land back and then
00:57:13.240 is still being judged for not giving all of it back and the closest comparison is probably from
00:57:18.660 1971 india uh took some land from pakistan in a war and then they gave it back after world war ii
00:57:27.240 we didn't occupy we gave the land back but neither one of those examples have the double standards that
00:57:35.220 israel has to live through but if russia and ukraine are serious about ending the war
00:57:40.960 they might want to look to sinai they might want to look back because that's the model not endless
00:57:47.080 battles not shifting borders by force but the humility to give back what you can and the wisdom to keep
00:57:55.620 only that in what you have to have for your own security and then russia has to do that and ukraine
00:58:06.240 has to be willing to swallow that they have lost some of these things but it's in trade for their security
00:58:13.580 and if donald trump can get russia to accept an article five like uh security agreement
00:58:21.540 that in and of itself is miraculous and we could actually all go home and say
00:58:28.860 well avoided nuclear war on that because remember where we were remember in 2022
00:58:36.500 joe biden was saying this is nuclear war if these things happen this will be nuclear war
00:58:44.420 remember how freaked out we all were we're like wait a minute wait a minute nobody's been talking
00:58:47.980 about nuclear war you know in 50 years what do you what do you mean nuclear war
00:58:52.320 we could avoid that i don't know who you voted for nor do i care
00:59:00.820 i i would hope that we are all praying for cooler heads to prevail um because this one now comes down to
00:59:13.980 how many more innocent lives that are not involved in this who are being drafted on both sides
00:59:21.040 being forced to fight this war uh on both sides how many more people are we going to kill
00:59:28.260 or allow being killed because of of because of what because of pride
00:59:34.100 i don't want to see putin rewarded for anything that he did nothing but war is war you know you don't
00:59:45.760 you know and if you're willing to continue to fight but ukraine's not going to be able to win
00:59:50.620 this war against ukraine i mean against russia would you agree with that jason jason buttrail is with us
00:59:55.520 would you agree they're not they're not able to fight unless we all get involved in its world war
01:00:00.100 that's the thing depending on how many people get pushed into this there there's some crazy
01:00:06.460 developments in this war technological advances ukraine or um drone warfare has escalated
01:00:13.680 out the roof on this i mean have you seen that some of the videos coming from and the crazy thing
01:00:20.300 is ukraine is actually leading i think in just ingenuity as far as like drone warfare but you can
01:00:26.620 watch videos on on on x right now that show some of these first person you know drones chasing down
01:00:33.260 russian soldiers across the battlefield and it's it's going back and forth i don't to answer your
01:00:38.280 question though more specifically no i it's basically a war of you know attrition and numbers
01:00:43.060 um the russians have more and the only way that ukraine can effectively over time win is if we get
01:00:49.200 involved other nato countries get involved that's where things spin out of control and here's a here's
01:00:53.840 another thing while we're talking about new technology you know let me go back to the b2 bomber flying over
01:00:59.520 uh donald trump and putin and everybody in the media was like he's on the red carpet and he saluted
01:01:06.760 him with you know a flyover no no that was intimidation that was clearly intimidation what was the message
01:01:13.520 why why did he say fly the b2 bomber back in 1940 jack northrup uh dreams up the flying wing and it's it's
01:01:26.720 radical it has no tail um it was the yb 49 and it was really futuristic now the germans were working
01:01:35.100 on the flying wing as well um but nobody could get it uh to stabilize um and you know the testing they
01:01:43.500 killed it by 1950 because they just couldn't get it stabilized now fast forward to the 1980s
01:01:48.800 under ronald reagan doing the same thing remember this bomber came out in the 1980s what else was
01:01:57.180 happening in the 1980s it was ronald reagan meeting with the leader of uh of russia and gorbachev
01:02:06.380 and ronald reagan was playing the heavy it's an evil empire and we're gonna end it and everybody's like
01:02:11.800 he's gonna get us in a nuclear war and he's like would you calm down i'm i have a strategy here
01:02:16.280 back in the 1980s when that was going on all of a sudden uh northrop grumman the the aerospace
01:02:26.600 company they came up with a b2 now it was first flown for people to see in 1989 but we had it before
01:02:37.360 then okay those things were always out before it's a it's a ufo there's just like this flying wing
01:02:43.100 flying well why was this such a big deal no one has been able to make a flying wing except us okay
01:02:53.720 it's precision it can drop those bombs in iran and it can hit a bomb 50 000 feet it can drop a bomb
01:03:02.900 and it will drop a bomb and hit the top of a pepsi can
01:03:06.780 that's remarkable precision okay um and it's unseen with radar it's untouchable but here's the
01:03:17.200 thing it was a message to putin we dreamed it up in the 40s we perfected it in the 80s and still
01:03:25.480 in 2025 nothing comes close this is this is who we are putin's radars didn't even blink but i can tell
01:03:36.300 you he felt the shadow of that wing this is why that flyover was such a big deal it is a perf it was
01:03:42.860 absolute proof america is in the leadership role again we don't just lead we dominate from the vision
01:03:50.820 to the victory sleep tight world the b2 is watching and america is leading again that was the message

01:05:03.060 oh yeah so what time uh stew do you have the uh this is so unfair stew do you have the president's
01:05:22.180 schedule handy you just rattle off what time all this starts i thought i haven't seen this
01:05:27.320 today is when i thought i heard the meeting was supposed to start obviously that could be
01:05:32.480 could be moved and who knows there's so many things with all these different leaders coming in and all
01:05:37.840 of that but that is the uh that's what they were talking about for today zelinski has come out and
01:05:43.280 said this is a historic decision the united states is ready to take part in security guarantees for
01:05:47.900 ukraine security guarantees as a result of our joint work must really be very practical delivering
01:05:52.920 on protection on land in the air and in the sea and must be developed with europe's participation
01:05:58.900 since the territorial issue is so important it should be discussed only by the leaders of ukraine
01:06:04.560 and russia at the trilateral of ukraine united states and russia so far russia gives no sign that
01:06:11.340 trilateral will happen and if russia refuses the new sanctions must follow so that's zelinski's uh
01:06:18.120 latest and i don't know why i mean trump is obviously you know remember when was the last time that
01:06:25.860 the president met with uh uh putin in a way like this as president u.s president without being a u.n
01:06:35.340 sponsored event 2007 2007 so he's been pretty much ignoring us since then showing no deference to
01:06:44.580 the united states we were png to them absolutely png person not grata um and so uh he is um he's now
01:06:53.560 showing deference but now trump has to get the three of them to the table uh
01:07:00.840 is that is that absolutely necessary jason do you think get all of them together the three of them
01:07:09.040 sure yeah absolutely to sign a some sort of a deal yes i can't imagine that happening i cannot imagine
01:07:16.280 that happening but we should know a little more by the end of the day all right more in just a second

01:09:13.360 going to be a little busy today um he's got uh some photos he's got to take around two o'clock in the
01:09:21.100 afternoon it sounds like biden's schedule uh he first meets with uh zelinski i think at one for
01:09:27.740 one-on-one bilateral talks then he's going in and he greets the leaders in the state dining room and
01:09:35.100 then i think he takes some pictures with their families etc etc and then they go into serious
01:09:40.060 meetings about that around three o'clock in the afternoon of course you'll get all of it covered
01:09:44.060 on msnbc uh later later today oh well i don't know if it'll be covered on msnbc i guess today
01:09:51.020 that might be true that might be true but soon it will no longer be true glenn uh msnbc is changing its
01:09:57.360 name they're changing their name that american institution of msnbc and it's jarring to lose
01:10:07.820 that close working relationship which is how it started between microsoft and nbc right ms for
01:10:15.460 microsoft and nbc yes um and microsoft has been out of this for a long time haven't they yes they've
01:10:22.280 been out of it for a long time but they kept the ms in there why i that i don't know i don't i can't
01:10:27.800 explain many of the things they do yeah right okay all right okay i think i think most people would be
01:10:33.000 you know that wouldn't remember it would be shocked to realize that microsoft was once a big
01:10:38.200 part of this it was supposed to be i think it was the first embrace of digital at that level right
01:10:45.100 like it was a big deal at that time didn't last and there's nothing there's nothing that says
01:10:49.500 credibility more than uh the mainstream media and bill gates right uh when you put those two things
01:10:56.320 together you know you got something special you really do so you know so is nbc suing msnbc
01:11:02.980 like no we even can't have our name on that they're spinning them off so nbc is spinning off
01:11:07.880 msnbc into its own separate company they are apparently hiring right now because they're losing
01:11:12.840 access to the nbc news uh room so they need to hire a whole new batch of horrible journalists that
01:11:19.620 that make a mockery of the profession to bring over there when does this when does this happen when
01:11:24.540 does this go through the official change i don't know this is the first date they're announcing
01:11:29.600 the new name let's see if i can find when that actually happens new name it launched by the way
01:11:35.740 in 1996 in case uh you were wondering how long this thing's been around it seems like it's been
01:11:41.240 it was 1896 or 1796 but um so uh i don't actually had some credibility at the very beginning
01:11:49.220 yeah i think lester holt started on msnbc uh and back in the 90s it was seen and it was still
01:11:56.680 left-leaning but almost it's left-leaning the way you'd expect every other correct piece of crap you
01:12:02.680 know mainstream broadcast it was like cnn like it was like left-leaning but not necessarily
01:12:08.740 completely insane now both of them since then have gone completely insane and you know they went
01:12:13.060 through the keith olberman period and i mean they've gone so far off the rails obviously at this point
01:12:18.580 but we know that the new name is do you want to do you want to guess do you do you have any idea
01:12:22.860 have you seen it is crap can yes crap can news you're right no that's cn that's ccn it might be
01:12:30.060 yeah different one might be too confusing so all right go ahead what is it it is ms now
01:12:37.660 so let me see if i have this right ms hasn't been a part of msnbc since the turn of the century
01:12:52.100 years and years and years yeah right yeah but they're going to keep the ms part right
01:12:57.740 and the n and the n and the n they're only changing two letters that's what it is they're like we can
01:13:03.800 just we just cut those two letters out of everything and just put ow there instead of bc
01:13:09.880 now other than the fact that ms now sounds like a plea for multiple sclerosis do you
01:13:19.760 do you do you want to take a venture a guess
01:13:26.400 as as to what this actually stands for it's each letter stands for something stands for it's an
01:13:35.580 acronym yes ms now news
01:13:38.940 you're skipping ms but yes news news is correct you got that right so that one's right so you got to get
01:13:47.840 the ms too it's not microsoft i have no idea do you want me to tell you what it is i i do because i think
01:13:55.260 it's going to be highly entertaining yeah my source
01:13:59.940 news my source opinion
01:14:04.620 world
01:14:06.720 so we have do they have cavemen working at their
01:14:14.640 ad agency my source news
01:14:18.200 opinion world
01:14:20.560 fire good
01:14:27.660 i mean the i will say the iq level is about there yeah my source news opinion and world
01:14:36.620 yes now you're a guy who's who's done this right you've you the blaze you came up with the name of
01:14:45.340 that gbtv before the torch the torch coming soon to a to you uh you also have uh many uh radio stations
01:14:53.800 that you programmed back in the day where you would look at yes what they were presenting and
01:14:58.300 so if you're looking at all that as an expert in this field
01:15:01.120 how would you grade this this rebrand for msnbc
01:15:04.960 does zero count
01:15:09.160 usually it's ten to one you know one to ten
01:15:12.760 can i include zero
01:15:14.840 or negative numbers that is the worst rebranding i've ever heard
01:15:19.100 yeah it's really bad just start fresh from the very beginning come up with something good
01:15:23.640 yeah but they're trying to obviously bridge that gap to hey this is what we've always been so you get
01:15:28.660 the ms gives you a little bit of familiarity
01:15:30.500 the logo so it's going to be so wait wait wait wait so it's not ms now it's it's good they're going
01:15:35.900 to call it msnow i think they're going to call it ms now i think they're trying to keep the ms
01:15:43.420 as something you know again that only people think of multiple sclerosis nobody thinks nobody
01:15:50.300 thinks of microsoft nobody thinks think of multiple sclerosis they don't want anybody to think of
01:15:55.360 microsoft they haven't been involved in it forever the only thing rather they'd rather have
01:16:00.320 you think of a debilitating disease yes than microsoft that is that is better than their
01:16:05.900 reputation yeah um it is the other thing you could look at it if you wanted to they could go the
01:16:11.140 feminist direction and call it ms now oh my gosh that could be something they can try oh my gosh is
01:16:20.880 that that sounds like something they would love because it indicates to me it's an absolute
01:16:28.200 guaranteed flaming just ball of death as it hits this as it hits the ground ms now that just sounds
01:16:41.160 like something that like yeah we should do that we should do that message no you're going to crash
01:16:45.420 this plane into the side of the mountain it's going to be a fiery ball of wreckage it's not good
01:16:50.060 to be clear the plane has only been flying like two feet off the ground for many many years but
01:16:55.060 yes they might actually crash it this time i could see ms now actually being the way they go which would
01:17:01.260 be even more uh comical though that would require them i think in theory to define what a woman is
01:17:07.180 if they went with ms now no that might not work either got so yeah this is a tough one
01:17:13.600 and when is this happening i think i have not seen the exact date it is supposed to be soon the
01:17:21.920 spinoff was announced last winter they initially said they would be keeping its name but then during
01:17:28.680 the transitional period they decided that uh they needed a new separate identity so can i ask you why
01:17:36.200 why who's making these decisions in hiring nbc is nbc like you know what we're going to uh staff and
01:17:45.880 design our competitor yeah kind of i mean because it does why would you do that one of the statements
01:17:51.960 i saw said nbc universal decided so i i guess because they haven't fully spun off yet they actually
01:17:59.840 are making these decisions maybe they have a bet so they're just spinning it off but they're keeping
01:18:04.900 are they are they keeping it in the universal comcast world i don't think so it's a separate
01:18:10.480 company i think it's going to be sold separate separate company why wouldn't you just sell the
01:18:14.620 position why wouldn't you just sell the cable access you know like current did remember when current
01:18:21.080 sold it to right they couldn't sell that they wouldn't sell al gore would not sell current tv
01:18:27.260 to glenn beck because i was so un-american in his own words that he sold it to al jazeera right
01:18:34.980 i remember this you know the company that bought it with oil money from al gore so that made a lot of
01:18:45.840 sense to him so uh why wouldn't why wouldn't they just sell that position why wouldn't they just go it's
01:18:51.860 up for sale why would you buy something that nbc created that i mean so wait a minute you hired
01:19:00.420 everybody but you hired them because you could you wouldn't give anybody on nbc a role there so you
01:19:07.340 were like why would you have hired you find anybody good you'd be like yeah save those guys for nbc
01:19:12.260 this guy belongs at ms now that's what we're calling it from here on out stew that's good
01:19:19.480 ms now ms now ms now is just too good now remember too at one point elon musk uh contemplated the
01:19:28.160 potential purchase of msnbc said smarter than that yeah why would you want a cable news company
01:19:34.460 what is he in a time machine he got back into a time machine you know i'd like to i'd like to do
01:19:40.680 that and i'd like a printing press too that's a fair point i i just i will say that and the color
01:19:48.400 scheme and like the the logo is really basic it looks terrible honestly and uh this is going to go
01:19:57.420 i think poorly glenn poorly that's saying something when msnbc is designing something that you think
01:20:06.720 might be worse than msnbc shocking but maybe you could do it you know if you put your mind to it
01:20:14.520 you can you can accomplish anything glenn including making mbc msnbc even worse i mean that's like if
01:20:20.300 we designed it honestly it would be like okay all right let's hire a bunch of lefties we're gonna call
01:20:26.060 it ms now we're gonna we're gonna lead with oh my gosh look at that uh we're gonna we're gonna lead
01:20:34.760 with uh guy cheerleaders and communism uh it's gonna be big i mean that sounds like something i would
01:20:44.060 design for them to either make fun of them or just to be you know let's see if we can do you remember
01:20:51.240 when i told you i went to that opera called the nose i took my daughter to the opera she loved opera
01:20:56.780 and and it was honestly it was i don't even know what the story was but it was the main character
01:21:03.680 was a nose so it's a giant nose with feet coming out of the nostrils and i said at the time i said
01:21:12.680 this has to be this was written by somebody who was like you know these opera snobs i'm gonna write
01:21:18.520 this whole thing it makes no sense it's awful but i'm gonna say oh no you just don't get it you
01:21:23.960 don't get the nose with the feet coming out you don't get it well i guess so and they sold it just
01:21:30.600 because opera snobs didn't want to say i don't get it okay you had to get it or you weren't cool uh i
01:21:37.400 think this is what i think this is what might this might be this is just might be a play on like how bad
01:21:42.240 can we make this thing to see if we get these lefties and go you don't get ms now you don't
01:21:48.000 understand that all right well whatever no no i get it i think it's genius in fact i want to pay
01:21:54.660 more for it what a bunch of dopes all right let me let me tell you about my patriot supply the

01:24:19.900 now they're coming out with uh... they're doing a
01:24:22.240 uh...
01:24:24.340 they're running a
01:24:25.540 uh... an editorial from
01:24:27.840 osita
01:24:28.700 no
01:24:30.260 one of you
01:24:31.740 one of you
01:24:32.740 what
01:24:33.300 n-w-a-n-e-v-w
01:24:37.900 that's not a word
01:24:39.140 that's not
01:24:40.560 i would definitely buy a consonant
01:24:41.760 uh... not not a vowel
01:24:43.080 yeah
01:24:43.640 yeah yeah
01:24:44.440 i mean it's
01:24:45.260 wow okay
01:24:45.980 um... but uh...
01:24:48.340 uh... the uh...
01:24:49.600 the article
01:24:50.380 uh... is uh...
01:24:53.040 based on the the right of the people democracy in the case for a new american founding
01:24:58.280 hmm
01:24:59.280 new american
01:25:00.840 haven't we heard about a new american founding
01:25:04.280 elsewhere
01:25:06.080 jason you remember that isn't there somebody on the right that's also talking about a new american founding
01:25:10.320 comes to mind
01:25:11.060 i think yeah both sides are now
01:25:12.340 yeah
01:25:12.640 are now talking about a new american founding
01:25:14.580 yeah
01:25:14.940 no
01:25:15.760 what do you say we go back to the original founding
01:25:17.860 uh... you know
01:25:19.140 i think the original idea would be good
01:25:21.240 you know
01:25:22.180 you've got this
01:25:23.520 you've got this gto
01:25:25.280 you know
01:25:26.040 you've got this great
01:25:27.180 old classic car
01:25:28.640 and everybody's like
01:25:29.780 you know what
01:25:30.560 i think we should completely
01:25:31.800 we should swap the engine out
01:25:33.460 you know what we should do is
01:25:35.080 we should change the body
01:25:36.160 how about we just restore it
01:25:37.960 to
01:25:38.500 the coolest car
01:25:40.440 ever
01:25:40.940 you know what i mean
01:25:42.120 why is everybody talking about
01:25:44.600 how we can make this great
01:25:45.960 by completely changing it
01:25:47.540 you know
01:25:48.260 that's the again going into an art museum
01:25:50.420 that mona lisa is good
01:25:52.060 now we could restore it
01:25:53.880 or we could get all that paint off of that thing
01:25:56.920 and uh... put something new there
01:25:58.720 a new mona lisa
01:26:00.820 no
01:26:02.100 no
01:26:03.200 uh... let's restore this
01:26:05.940 there's a reason why the average constitution runs for 17 years
01:26:10.280 and ours is approaching 200 and what
01:26:12.940 for this
01:26:13.740 is glenn back
01:26:15.460 we've got an incredible hour coming up for you
01:26:17.420 let me tell you about jace medical
01:26:18.520 imagine you're packing for a trip overseas
01:26:20.620 and you're
01:26:21.300 you check for your bag your shoes your passport phone charger
01:26:24.060 here's a question nobody ever thinks to ask themselves
01:26:26.660 what if you get sick
01:26:27.880 what if it's not just a headache
01:26:29.060 but something that needs medication
01:26:30.580 now extend that question to everyday life
01:26:32.860 the past few years
01:26:34.100 one thing that we should have learned
01:26:36.100 is that the pharmacy
01:26:36.800 pharmacy shelves
01:26:38.500 do not always stay stocked
01:26:40.460 i don't know that's a tongue
01:26:41.540 for me
01:26:42.280 when water
01:26:43.040 uh... when uh...
01:26:44.280 when supplies chains snap
01:26:45.920 it doesn't matter how close your corner drugstore is
01:26:49.060 if it doesn't have any
01:26:50.260 drugs in it
01:26:51.320 this is why jace medical exists
01:26:53.500 they provide a supply of emergency antibiotics
01:26:56.460 a tiny box with a huge impact
01:26:58.440 it's not just about being prepared in the doomsday sense
01:27:01.120 it's about being the kind of person who thinks ahead
01:27:03.060 and uh... knows that
01:27:04.860 you know
01:27:05.340 if my family needs medication
01:27:07.020 i need to have that medication
01:27:08.640 and it could even mean just having medication at night
01:27:11.220 until you can get to the doctor the next morning
01:27:13.160 and get it from the drugstore the next day

01:28:19.640 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:28:27.320 Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:28:29.820 Well, as the president is getting ready to meet on Ukraine about the Ukraine-Russia peace deal,
01:28:36.920 the media is all up in arms about that.
01:28:38.780 And also, PBS is being replaced by PragerU.
01:28:43.360 Yes, the mainstream media has revealed it's all been a grand scheme.
01:28:48.580 And I happen to have the CEO of PragerU here at the ranch.
01:28:55.800 A lot of PragerU people are upstairs because we're filming a bunch of stuff.
01:28:59.200 I didn't realize that I am suddenly Elmo.
01:29:04.000 But we'll talk about that coming up in just a second.
01:29:06.420 And also, the New York Times, here's a great article.
01:29:12.200 And I'm not sure, there's a lot that we have to read into it on, you know,
01:29:18.900 because I'm not sure what they mean when they say, you know, pack the courts.
01:29:23.000 But there's a new article out from the New York Times.
01:29:29.440 It's an op-ed piece where they have a plan.
01:29:32.600 They have a plan for America.
01:29:35.040 It doesn't really sound like America if they do their plan.
01:29:38.580 But we'll get into that here in just a second.
01:29:40.660 Stand by.
01:29:41.300 First, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.
01:29:43.380 It's Lear Capital.
01:29:44.240 You know, ever notice how suddenly, you know, everybody's suddenly an investing genius?
01:29:50.840 You know, at the family barbecue when somebody's like,
01:29:53.460 crypto's going to the moon, your cousin's all in, you know, on tech stocks.
01:29:57.660 Somebody's uncle is talking about Beanie Babies making a comeback
01:30:00.560 because he's got a closet full of them somewhere.
01:30:03.020 And then when the market starts to actually shake,
01:30:05.240 all these can't-miss strategies suddenly sound like a lot of bad jokes.
01:30:08.840 And the only people laughing are the ones who made sure that part of their money
01:30:12.780 was parked in something really solid.
01:30:14.840 That's something that has been a store of value for thousands of years,
01:30:17.760 and that is gold or silver.
01:30:19.780 That's where Lear Capital comes in.

01:30:27.220 or even part of your retirement and turning it into real physical metals.

01:30:35.100 Just something that you can actually hold on and hold in your hand
01:30:38.720 when smart money crowd starts to sweat.
01:30:41.060 So please call Lear Capital today.
01:30:43.200 The number is 800-957-GOLD.
01:30:45.100 800-957-GOLD.
01:30:47.620 It's Lear Capital.
01:30:51.900 All right.
01:30:54.860 This is such an amazing story that is coming now from the left
01:31:00.920 and the New York Times on let's change the Constitution.
01:31:07.280 Let's change.
01:31:08.060 You want to give me a quick – I just lost the story.
01:31:11.100 Can you give me a quick update on this one?
01:31:13.120 The title of this, kind of like you hinted, speaks for itself.
01:31:17.460 The title is thus, Abolish the Senate, End the Electoral College,
01:31:23.640 and Pack the Court.
01:31:25.740 It's a discussion on what – I mean, it's almost like they're doing a 1619 project.
01:31:31.220 No.
01:31:31.540 But instead of focusing that, now they're just trying to change the history of why the founders created our government the way they did.
01:31:39.160 And it's a complete abomination.
01:31:41.060 I mean, the founders pretty much saw government as an evil, a necessary evil,
01:31:46.480 but they did everything in their power to limit it as much as they could.
01:31:49.420 Now, this article, this opinion, whatever this is, seems to argue exactly the opposite.
01:31:55.400 And what's really amazing to me is they actually have the balls to mention things like the Federalist Papers
01:32:01.720 and then turn around and title this thing in the Electoral College.
01:32:05.780 I mean, it's argued specifically not only the need for an Electoral College, but why?
01:32:12.640 So, you know, what's amazing to me is they make several points in this article where they are like the Electoral College,
01:32:19.840 trying to say that it's only a democracy if we have no Electoral College.
01:32:26.740 Well, we're not a democracy.
01:32:30.640 We are a republic, and democracies fail every single time.
01:32:35.160 There is no such thing as a true democracy where everybody is voting on every item.
01:32:42.640 They fail every time.
01:32:44.940 You have a democracy, and the reason why the left likes it is because you can convince – look at New York.
01:32:52.440 You can convince people of something like communism, and then that's the last election that you will have.
01:32:58.580 In country after country, that's what happens.
01:33:00.500 The people are voting – they vote in, and they're like, you know what?
01:33:04.340 This is the answer to all of our problems.
01:33:06.840 This is the answer to cancer.
01:33:08.940 And then you don't have another vote again.
01:33:13.100 You don't have it.
01:33:14.500 It doesn't – you don't have the republic.
01:33:16.380 First of all, you can't vote on every single thing.
01:33:20.400 You can't because you don't know all the ins and outs of everything.
01:33:23.900 So you have to elect somebody that is as close to you as possible, and you elect them first in the House of Representatives.
01:33:34.020 The House of Representatives, the reason why there's only a two-year term on those guys is because that's the closest to you.
01:33:42.400 The Congress is the one that is supposed to control the purse strings, but that's not true anymore.
01:33:48.200 You want to know why our spending is out of control?
01:33:50.820 Because Congress no longer does its job.
01:33:53.760 Congress no longer controls the purse strings.
01:33:57.100 So they've given that up because they haven't done any budget or anything else, and nobody's holding anybody responsible for the spending.
01:34:04.380 What you're supposed to do is every two years, when they get out of control on spending, you can vote them out and say, nope, don't want any of that.
01:34:12.780 It's the closest to the people.
01:34:15.140 That's why they have to run every two years.
01:34:17.280 Then the Senate, which the progressives have already changed, and he makes a case in here again in the New York Times editorial, that we haven't done enough to the Senate.
01:34:28.960 In 1913, the progressives under Wilson, they decide they're going to change the Senate from the way it was originally in the Constitution.
01:34:40.200 The way the founders did it was, remember, they want the people, but they also were really concerned about the federal government.
01:34:48.000 So they wanted the states to make sure the states were representative.
01:34:53.040 So everyone knew that Texas is not going to vote for something because New York wants it, and it's not good for Texas.
01:35:04.900 If Texans are elected by the state, and they only represent the state.
01:35:14.240 Right now, you have Chuck Schumer.
01:35:16.380 Why does he raise money in California?
01:35:18.680 Why are these people running around, even on our side, all around the country?
01:35:24.640 Why do we care?
01:35:25.680 Because they no longer represent the state.
01:35:31.180 It's just another higher level, I guess, of Congress.
01:35:36.040 We already have that body.
01:35:38.160 Now we're supposed to have something that protects the individual states.
01:35:42.000 Well, the progressives didn't like that because they need a democracy, and they want an all-powerful federal government.
01:35:53.200 And so they abolished that from the Constitution, and the 17th Amendment changed the way that we vote for senators.
01:36:02.860 So they've already screwed it up once.
01:36:04.640 This is what progressives always do.
01:36:06.340 They'll fix health care, and then they'll say, and it's so broken now, it's even worse.
01:36:11.200 So let's fix it again.
01:36:12.840 No, you guys should be left out of it, okay?
01:36:15.160 You guys should not be fixing anything because you don't know your butt from your elbow.
01:36:19.680 So they've already changed that.
01:36:21.780 Now they're saying that that has to be changed even more because it's not representative.
01:36:29.040 Well, no, because it's supposed to equalize.
01:36:32.960 The reason why we have 400, what is it, 434 representatives, it's more than that now, that number changes as our population grows.
01:36:44.600 So the population grows.
01:36:46.220 You get in your area, you'll get more Congress people because it represents the people.
01:36:51.720 The Senate only has two senators from Delaware or California.
01:36:57.920 And this article is saying that's not fair because there's more people in California than there are in Delaware.
01:37:04.220 Well, if you do that, then you completely erase the states.
01:37:08.920 Then Delaware, Wyoming, Idaho, all of these other states that have small populations.
01:37:15.560 The only ones that matter will be California, Texas, New York, Florida.
01:37:22.240 That's it.
01:37:23.080 They'll make all the decisions.
01:37:24.440 Now, you in Nebraska, do you want New York and California and even Texas making all the decisions for you?
01:37:33.380 Of course not.
01:37:35.160 Of course not.
01:37:36.580 That's why the Senate has two senators.
01:37:40.300 Not 50 senators for California.
01:37:42.820 Two.
01:37:43.420 The same as your state.
01:37:45.100 They've already undercut the state power one time.
01:37:49.580 Now they want to cut it completely and make it into another representative body of the people.
01:37:57.000 That's not what it was for.
01:37:59.900 They knew that Congress would react quickly.
01:38:04.400 The House of Representatives would be so connected to the people that they would act quickly.
01:38:10.580 And they could do really stupid things because when there's a panic, these elected officials want to move because their constituents are yelling at them.
01:38:19.580 And it wouldn't necessarily be the right thing.
01:38:23.020 So they wanted to balance that with the state power.
01:38:26.740 The state, those senators were elected by the legislators in that state, which I don't love.
01:38:34.100 But it might bring things back into play where we don't care about Chuck Schumer anymore unless you live in New York.
01:38:41.920 You only care about your senator because they were the balance from the public saying, we've got to put the Patriot Act in.
01:38:51.200 No, the Senate should be aligned to say, no, that takes power away from the states and gives an all-consuming federal government all kinds of power to them.
01:39:02.960 No.
01:39:03.600 No.
01:39:04.560 And then when those two houses, both the state and the people living in the states, could agree, then it goes to the president.
01:39:14.000 And the president is only supposed to veto when he feels it's unconstitutional.
01:39:20.840 Not because he doesn't like it, not because his party tells him, but because it's unconstitutional.
01:39:27.380 You don't have the power to do that.
01:39:29.660 However, Congress can say, Mr. President, I'm sorry, you're wrong, and they can, with three-fourths, they can vote again and pass it in the House with three-fourths, or they can take it to the Supreme Court.
01:39:44.620 And the Supreme Court is only supposed to decide whether it's constitutional.
01:39:50.500 Look at the damage that the left and the progressives have done to this system.
01:39:54.880 It was brilliant.
01:39:55.520 The power is in the House with the people.
01:40:00.360 The power, they always say when there's a problem, follow the money, right?
01:40:04.320 The money is the power.
01:40:06.500 So they've taken that power to create laws and given it to the executive branch, to the presidential branch.
01:40:14.440 They've stopped doing, passing a budget.
01:40:17.240 We haven't had a budget since George Bush.
01:40:19.220 They've stopped passing a budget.
01:40:20.860 So they have no real power left in them anymore.
01:40:25.940 Then they gutted the state with the Senate.
01:40:31.160 And then they made the president, they made him into the veto power into whatever his party says.
01:40:40.780 They've completely revamped this thing already.
01:40:44.780 And it's not working.
01:40:46.800 Why?
01:40:47.360 Because they've bastardized it.
01:40:49.260 If the president, they can't get it done in the House, they can't get it done in the Senate, and they can't get it done by the president, then they've expanded the power of the Supreme Court.
01:40:59.580 And now the Supreme Court can legislate from the bench.
01:41:03.760 They can say, well, you know what?
01:41:05.600 I think what they meant was this.
01:41:08.040 No, that's not your job.
01:41:09.780 That's not your job.
01:41:10.960 Your job is to say this is constitutional.
01:41:13.300 This is not constitutional.
01:41:14.520 To give you an idea of how weak the Supreme Court was supposed to be, when the designers of the Capitol put together the three branches of government, they didn't include a space for the Supreme Court.
01:41:30.060 You know where the Supreme Court, until FDR, the Supreme Court used to meet in the basement of the Capitol.
01:41:37.460 They didn't have any space.
01:41:40.620 They had the basement of the Capitol.
01:41:43.980 But FDR wanted to make sure that the Supreme Court could rule the country.
01:41:49.880 And if he couldn't get it passed in the House and the Senate, he'd get it through the Supreme Court.
01:41:56.020 That's why he put them on a pedestal.
01:41:58.420 And that's why he tried exactly what this article is saying to do, pack the Supreme Court.
01:42:05.540 What does that mean?
01:42:08.200 That means what we're going to do here is we're just going to load up on Supreme Court justices.
01:42:14.160 We have nine Supreme Court justices.
01:42:16.420 That's not in the Constitution.
01:42:18.860 You can have seven.
01:42:20.200 You can have 12.
01:42:21.340 It's not in the Constitution.
01:42:23.340 But our tradition is there has been nine Supreme Court justices.
01:42:28.100 So we all accept that.
01:42:30.120 When you start at, imagine lefties, how would you feel if Donald Trump said, we're going to pack the Supreme Court?
01:42:37.280 I'm going to add five more justices right now.
01:42:41.320 What would you do?
01:42:43.440 What would you do?
01:42:45.060 You'd lose your mind.
01:42:47.520 Why?
01:42:48.060 Because you know he would pack it with the people that would just agree with him.
01:42:53.320 That's not what the Supreme Court is supposed to do.
01:42:56.600 That's why if Donald Trump said he was going to pack the Supreme Court, I would be against it.
01:43:02.500 And I would be a leading opposition voice of Donald Trump on that if that's what he wanted to do.
01:43:09.540 But you're suggesting that as something that would be good for the country.
01:43:14.800 It would not be good for the country.
01:43:17.500 And by the way, once you pack the Supreme Court, you'll get up.
01:43:21.020 There are some countries that have like 47 Supreme Court justices.
01:43:23.600 They just keep putting them in until they can absolutely control it.
01:43:27.920 Once you pack a Supreme Court, you destroy the country.
01:43:31.820 That is the last gasp of a republic or of a country.
01:43:37.260 You pack the Supreme Court.
01:43:40.040 So they've changed absolutely everything.
01:43:43.040 And in this op-ed, he's also suggesting that, you know, another thing we should do is we should just add states.
01:43:50.500 We just add states.
01:43:52.340 We'll just keep adding states.
01:43:54.260 Again, packing the Senate.
01:43:59.260 What?
01:44:01.060 When you say we want to, what is the thing they want to reimagine America or re-found America?
01:44:06.320 You're not re-founding it.
01:44:07.900 You're working on something completely different.
01:44:10.480 That's not America.
01:44:11.200 The under headline on the main headline is why the left can't win.
01:44:15.900 I'm adding my own ellipses here, dot, dot, dot, without a new constitution.
01:44:20.420 That's how radically they're thinking on this.
01:44:24.340 Just insane.
01:44:25.800 I mean, but it's true.
01:44:28.840 They don't like the outcome.
01:44:32.120 They don't like the fact that they almost had us.
01:44:35.800 They almost had us.
01:44:37.360 They have taken and twisted education.
01:44:41.280 They took and twisted the media.
01:44:43.640 They made these all just groups that are marching at their orders, teaching and using propaganda and brainwashing techniques to teach these twisted views and then reinforce them in the media.
01:44:57.460 They had that.
01:44:59.460 They had that.
01:45:00.580 It wasn't enough.
01:45:01.700 Before, they had music.
01:45:04.480 They had the movies.
01:45:05.260 It wasn't enough.
01:45:06.440 They just keep gobbling and gobbling and gobbling.
01:45:09.560 And the reason why they're now at this point is because we're on to them.
01:45:14.460 We figured it out.
01:45:16.840 The people will always, you know, we will always be late.
01:45:21.800 But we'll always figure it out.
01:45:23.280 And then we'll do the right thing.
01:45:24.560 They're trying to take away all of the escape doors, all of the exit doors.
01:45:29.940 They're trying to lock them all down so you can't get out of this nightmare hell house that they're building for us.
01:45:36.480 Back in just a second.
01:45:37.760 Let me tell you about Z Factor.

01:46:47.180 Ten seconds and back to the show.
01:46:48.580 All righty.
01:47:02.080 Welcome to Steve Bregeer, otherwise known as Stu, for some reason, an assumed name he's been living under for a whole time,
01:47:10.260 mainly because I think he's a Canadian spy, which everybody used to laugh at.
01:47:13.840 Now, not so funny, is it, Canadian Bregeer?
01:47:17.980 I know who you are.
01:47:19.180 Some would say that.
01:47:20.200 Some would say that I'm hiding my association with you.
01:47:23.300 That would be another way to look at it.
01:47:26.560 It all started with you.
01:47:28.320 Yeah, thank you.
01:47:29.260 Thank you.
01:47:29.620 Ella Emhoff, the stepdaughter of the former Vice President Kamala Harris, took to TikTok on Thursday to express her deep anxiety about climate change.
01:47:44.320 She has a deep, deep fear about the current state of the environment.
01:47:52.160 And she said, the feelings about climate anxiety have made her feel very, very heavy.
01:47:58.740 It could be the cake that also makes you feel heavy.
01:48:01.000 I don't know.
01:48:01.540 I have not seen a picture of her, so I don't know.
01:48:03.960 But she said, like everyone, I feel disgust at what's going on in the world.
01:48:08.720 No, no, that's not everybody.
01:48:10.200 Genocide, the loss of lives, the loss of health care, and the general fear that everyone has surrounding affordability, their lives, their livelihood, like everything.
01:48:21.920 It just feels so big.
01:48:23.220 I think everything with the environment is really getting to me.
01:48:27.920 And it's the one I experience, a lot of climate anxiety.
01:48:32.640 It's not funny.
01:48:34.520 Well, it's not.
01:48:35.840 It's actually a huge tragedy that you feel that way.
01:48:38.980 And I would blame your parents and everybody else in the media and all of your teachers, all the people that you kind of really support for doing this to you.
01:48:50.920 And then you being an adult and not being able to figure out this climate change thing is a scam.
01:48:58.680 This is Glenn Beck.

01:50:24.180 In the belly of the beast, I'm sitting here with the CEO of PragerU, which we all know if you watched, you know, CNN or, you know, you saw anything from Vox.
01:50:50.620 They are the new PBS, which I think, because Marissa Stride is the CEO, she's up here at my ranch because we're filming some stuff for PragerU kids, right?
01:51:02.080 And does that make me Elmo?
01:51:05.460 I think you're more of a big bird.
01:51:07.260 Big bird.
01:51:07.840 Okay.
01:51:08.340 Okay, good.
01:51:09.560 All of a sudden, it doesn't feel so great.
01:51:11.200 Um, so they're claiming that you are becoming the new PBS, um, because you're going after our kids.
01:51:20.680 Uh, can, can you just, first of all, do you get any money from the federal government?
01:51:26.360 We won't take a dollar from the government.
01:51:28.200 That's in our mission.
01:51:31.180 Well, Stu, help me out.
01:51:32.760 Doesn't that automatically disqualify you from being PBS?
01:51:37.440 It does.
01:51:38.360 I would say it does.
01:51:39.340 Yes.
01:51:39.780 I mean, I think the big thing about PBS is they're taking our federal dollars and, uh, using it in ways that I don't necessarily agree with and they can make money on their own.
01:51:50.180 So I don't, I think the press misses what the problem is with PBS.
01:51:55.800 Um, so tell me about what, what you are doing right now.
01:51:59.720 Cause there's several things.
01:52:00.860 First of all, uh, let's start with the 250th anniversary.
01:52:04.320 What are you doing on the 250th anniversary?
01:52:07.180 So PragerU uses edutainment.
01:52:10.400 And so in some ways they're comparing us to PBS because of that, because we believe that learning should be fun and it should be entertaining.
01:52:17.100 Right.
01:52:17.320 And that oftentimes when you're entertained, you can learn.
01:52:20.600 And so in that way, we are somewhat similar to PBS.
01:52:25.480 Um, but what we are doing is we're celebrating America.
01:52:29.280 America has never been perfect, but it's the greatest country on God's green earth.
01:52:34.200 And when we are teaching kids to grow up and not love their country, it is causing so many problems.
01:52:40.820 It's a national security issue.
01:52:42.560 It's a mental health health issue for our children.
01:52:45.700 And so we are taking this opportunity for America's 250th birthday to just reignite patriotism and give some perspective that yes, America has its blemishes.
01:52:56.780 Of course it does.
01:52:58.100 But America is a great country and has been a leader in greatness for so many years.
01:53:03.480 And we want to teach that.
01:53:05.420 And so what we are doing is we're creating content for every single learner, four years old, all the way through 104 to remember what we're country.
01:53:16.060 Our country is about what our DNA is.
01:53:18.580 And the nice thing is, is that it is, it's actual history.
01:53:23.460 I mean, we, we caught something, uh, yesterday or working on several of these, um, uh, videos that are going to be used in AP classes, right?
01:53:33.140 So this is AP history in high schools.
01:53:37.400 Yes.
01:53:37.980 I mean, look, so many Americans are learning history through the lens of Howard Zinn.
01:53:43.160 Uh, for those who don't know who Howard Zinn is, I think he categorically destroyed the, the history classes in America, right?
01:53:53.600 Teaching a perspective.
01:53:55.200 Not all of it was a lie, but it's the footnotes.
01:53:57.940 It's, it's, it's without the greater perspective of, of what America is.
01:54:02.880 And so we are taking American history and we're making it fun and engaging.
01:54:07.960 And so that students who would watch this course that we're creating together will not learn, not only learn the truth about America, but we'll have a perspective and enjoy doing it at the same time.
01:54:19.800 That's the edutainment piece of it.
01:54:21.360 And it's really amazing because we're not avoiding the bad stuff.
01:54:25.960 We're doing something today on slavery.
01:54:27.900 Yes.
01:54:28.160 Um, and you know, I saw somewhere I read, you know, they, they were accusing you guys of, uh, PragerU is dismissing slavery and saying it's no big deal.
01:54:36.740 And I'm like, on what planet, in what parallel universe is PragerU saying that?
01:54:41.940 Well, what, what they're saying is we made a video that teaches about Christopher Columbus and we basically paraphrased what he would have said to two young kids.
01:54:51.240 And from Christopher Columbus's perspective, he probably thought that slavery was okay because that's what he did.
01:54:59.520 And so because we had the cartoon, Christopher Columbus say, oh, I think slavery is okay.
01:55:06.280 And then the kids responded back to him in this show that we made.
01:55:10.280 Well, actually slavery is abhorrent.
01:55:13.040 It is a horrible thing.
01:55:14.620 Right.
01:55:14.680 We know today that it was a terrible thing that the world engaged in slavery.
01:55:19.460 And then Christopher Columbus in this cartoon responds and says, oh, wow, I don't, I didn't have that perspective.
01:55:24.940 I didn't know.
01:55:26.280 That is why we are being attacked because we are paraphrasing what Christopher Columbus would have said.
01:55:32.160 And so what does the silly media do?
01:55:34.760 I mean, it's, it's completely cuckoo.
01:55:36.540 They're claiming that PragerU is claiming that slavery was okay because the character in our cartoon, that character, Christopher Columbus, said it was okay.
01:55:47.760 You know, it's, it's amazing.
01:55:49.140 I think this stuff is coming undone quickly and they're panicking.
01:55:53.100 I mean, look what you're doing with teachers.
01:55:55.160 Okay.
01:55:55.320 These teachers are moving from, you know, deeply blue states into red states.
01:56:01.000 And the states rightfully, you know, are saying, ah, we, we don't want any of that California crap in our schools, but they're, if they're licensed to be a teacher, they can teach anywhere.
01:56:12.540 But that's now changing because states are saying, no, you're coming from California.
01:56:17.440 You're coming from New York.
01:56:18.620 I want to make sure that you know the things that, you know, are true and we're not having any of this woke crap.
01:56:25.760 This test that you're giving now, uh, and you've been asked by the states to develop this test and it is so, to me, first grade kind of questions.
01:56:37.580 I can't believe there is a problem with this at all.
01:56:40.760 I mean, we're living in shocking times, Glenn.
01:56:43.840 It's shocking.
01:56:45.260 People can see the test.
01:56:46.720 We've made this test available.
01:56:48.320 They can go to our website.
01:56:49.720 They can check it out.
01:56:50.700 The test is so very basic.
01:56:52.720 The fact that the media and the administrators of woke schools are squealing over this test is unbelievable.
01:57:02.400 It is so very, very basic, but you're right.
01:57:05.140 In California, teachers are required to take a course called the PRISM test.
01:57:10.120 Uh, I, I like to call it the prison test because frankly, I think teachers should go to prison.
01:57:14.860 If you can't pass this.
01:57:16.320 Yes.
01:57:16.600 Yeah.
01:57:16.800 It's, it's crazy.
01:57:17.820 The PRISM test is given to Californian teachers to, it's, it's not a test.
01:57:23.160 It's a course.
01:57:23.860 It's a six part course that teaches a teacher how to not differentiate between a boy and a girl, how to actually bring all of this sexualization that we've been complaining about in classrooms.
01:57:36.500 And so it's not just superintendents of education that have approached us with questions.
01:57:41.980 How do we help teachers do the right thing?
01:57:44.520 It's also parents.
01:57:45.680 Parents are coming to us and saying, well, we don't know if we can trust these teachers anymore.
01:57:49.480 We're going to send our kids to our schools and, and have a teacher that can't pass a basic civics test.
01:57:54.460 That can't pass a basic literacy test.
01:57:57.400 That can't pass a best basic understanding of, of what a boy is and what a girl is.
01:58:01.900 So superintendent of education, Ryan Walters of Oklahoma approached us and said, can you just do something very basic?
01:58:07.560 Because the complaints are coming in when parents are sending their kids to schools where teachers who have come in from California and New York are in charge of a classroom and are bringing in the woke indoctrination that they've received in California.
01:58:24.200 Any idea how many teachers are failing this test?
01:58:27.060 Well, we are launching this test now.
01:58:29.920 So this is a brand new test, but I can tell you how many teachers have been forced to pass the PRISM test in California.
01:58:36.760 Almost every single one of them.
01:58:38.880 So listen to some of these questions, Stu.
01:58:40.700 This is multiple choice.
01:58:41.720 This is not a setup.
01:58:42.500 This is multiple choice.
01:58:43.520 So, I mean, you'll get everyone.
01:58:46.240 What's the primary, this is the first question.
01:58:48.340 What's the primary biological distinction between males and females?
01:58:52.160 A, height and weight.
01:58:54.220 B, hairstyle.
01:58:56.400 C, personal preference.
01:58:58.280 D, chromosomes and reproductive anatomy.
01:59:02.820 That's a tough one.
01:59:04.500 That's a tough one.
01:59:05.420 Leaning hairstyle.
01:59:08.460 But I'll go D.
01:59:09.960 At birth, how is a person's biological sex typically identified?
01:59:14.100 A, personal feelings.
01:59:15.860 B, parental choice.
01:59:17.680 C, online registration.
01:59:19.280 D, visual anatomical observation and chromosomes.
01:59:23.820 That's a fascinating one.
01:59:24.780 I mean, obviously the answer is D.
01:59:26.160 But I would say a lot of people on the left would say B, right?
01:59:29.080 Like it's parental preference or something.
01:59:31.560 Yeah.
01:59:32.080 Right.
01:59:32.400 Or personal feelings.
01:59:33.880 I mean, you know, this only gets hard if you are completely disconnected from science and reality.
01:59:42.160 Well, you mentioned science and reality.
01:59:44.660 I have spoken to pediatricians and doctors, frankly, from all over the country who are forced to erase the question of whether they have a boy or a girl in the medical charts when they're receiving a new patient.
01:59:57.240 So, this is not just a problem in schools, but this is a problem in pediatric offices as well.
02:00:03.520 So, yes, sadly, we are living in the twilight zone where teachers have to be taught very basic common sense.
02:00:11.880 Listen to this.
02:00:13.860 Name one reason the colonists fought the British.
02:00:17.560 A, avoid working the land.
02:00:19.640 B, higher social standing.
02:00:22.140 C, resist forced army service.
02:00:24.720 D, protest high British taxes without representation.
02:00:29.400 I mean, honestly, fifth graders, in my day, fifth graders would be able to take this, you know, a hundred years ago.
02:00:38.040 First graders would be insulted by these.
02:00:40.480 Who was the first president?
02:00:41.920 John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Greg Washington, or George Washington?
02:00:46.900 I'm pretty sure it was Greg.
02:00:49.780 What did the Emancipation Proclamation do?
02:00:51.980 Ended Prohibition, freed Confederate generals, freed the slaves in the North, freed the slaves in the South.
02:00:59.740 Honestly, you cannot be a teacher if you don't know these things.
02:01:03.740 We agree.
02:01:04.480 We agree.
02:01:05.140 And as much as we're giggling about it and, you know, it sounds funny, but it's really not funny, Glenn.
02:01:10.540 It's really sad and it's really upsetting.
02:01:13.200 Part of what this test is doing is it's actually recalibrating what is happening in the classrooms.
02:01:18.700 It's reminding teachers to focus on what matters.
02:01:23.000 It's reminding teachers to actually look at the world through common sense, a lens of common sense.
02:01:28.420 And sadly, the teacher indoctrination centers, which is basically the teacher seminaries, the colleges for teachers, have been turning the world upside down.
02:01:39.860 And they're training these young teachers to go into our classrooms.
02:01:43.440 And you're lucky if they know nothing.
02:01:46.960 The problem is the Marxism that they're being taught.
02:01:49.940 Oh, I know.
02:01:50.400 I know.
02:01:51.360 Talk to me a little bit about Hungary because you just got back from Hungary, didn't you?
02:01:55.160 Weren't you there last week?
02:01:56.480 Yes, we were in Hungary last week.
02:01:58.000 What is happening in Hungary?
02:02:00.160 So what is happening now is the world is realizing that there's a real attack on common sense everywhere.
02:02:08.220 And there's an attack on values.
02:02:10.880 And PragerU, through our edutainment model, has been successful here in the United States.
02:02:17.080 I mean, as you could see, CNN, New York Times are all upset that we're becoming the new PBS, as they call us.
02:02:22.860 And we don't want to just create a system that helps America.
02:02:29.140 We want to create an industry that helps the world.
02:02:32.580 We want the world to be a better place, Glenn.
02:02:34.800 And so when other places, when other countries approach PragerU and say, hey, how do we do edutainment in our own country?
02:02:42.020 Our answer is yes.
02:02:43.700 And so we have created now a training system for other countries so that they can bring these wholesome, patriotic values to their own countries.
02:02:54.720 So we flew to Hungary to train them.
02:02:57.920 We've been training some folks in the UK.
02:03:00.760 Canadians have come out to PragerU.
02:03:02.660 We've done the same training for them.
02:03:05.140 For a very long time, I hate to say this, over the last 10 years, America has been exporting some real bad ideas.
02:03:11.900 USAID.
02:03:13.180 USAID has been a huge problem.
02:03:15.060 It's been propagating a lot of this gender blur stuff.
02:03:17.740 And to countries that were dead set against it, but were starving, you can't get the aid unless you teach this.
02:03:25.580 And they did because they had to.
02:03:27.260 We've been bribing other countries to do the wrong thing.
02:03:31.580 It's awful.
02:03:32.540 To sexualize their children.
02:03:34.860 And so we feel that as an organization that is helping save America, we are trying to undo that damage as well.
02:03:43.140 And if we can train other countries to undo the damage, then that's what we're there for.
02:03:48.360 So do you base that on their stuff, or do you base that on the American understanding of freedom?
02:03:55.760 So we have a set of values at PragerU, which is what we call the American DNA, our understanding of freedom.
02:04:04.260 We are not looking to export American ideas to other countries.
02:04:08.600 What we are looking to do is teach them the model of how edutainment works, and to teach them a model of how PragerU follows its values.
02:04:20.360 Now, many of them, and we do make sure that the folks that we're working with do honor and respect our values.
02:04:26.740 We're not going to train a bunch of Marxists in doing so.
02:04:29.660 And many of them are using some of our videos as a baseline for teaching.
02:04:34.680 Well, you're doing God's work, and I am so proud to partner with you and to call you friend, and Dennis, the same.
02:04:42.620 Can you give me a quick update? I've only got a couple of seconds.
02:04:44.980 Quick update on Dennis. How is he doing?
02:04:47.520 So Dennis had a very severe injury.
02:04:50.020 For those who don't know the background, he fell down.
02:04:53.120 He hit his spinal cord.
02:04:55.360 The spinal cord injury is at the top of his spine, and so it makes it very, very difficult for him to breathe.
02:05:01.380 And that's why the recovery is taking so long.
02:05:04.100 It's been already nine months that he's been laying down.
02:05:06.600 His mind is there.
02:05:08.100 His body is not there.
02:05:10.040 But the good news is he just completed another book.
02:05:14.540 It's amazing.
02:05:14.880 So Dennis is living his values.
02:05:17.300 Yeah.
02:05:18.440 Well, we pray for him all the time.
02:05:20.340 Thank you so much.
02:05:21.160 By the way, if you want to give to PragerU, Mercury One has given to PragerU.
02:05:27.880 Tanya and I donate to PragerU.
02:05:29.600 I mean, I really, I believe these guys really are saving the republic.
02:05:33.660 It's one of the most important movements.
02:05:35.560 This month, they are doing a matching dollar for dollar.
02:05:38.940 So you give a dollar, somebody else will give a dollar to match it.
02:05:41.460 So you double the effect.
02:05:43.660 Please give to PragerU.
02:05:44.880 Go to PragerU.com.
02:05:46.100 PragerU.com.
02:05:47.260 Thank you.
02:05:47.600 Better you than the government.
02:05:48.900 You don't take a dollar.
02:05:49.920 Yeah, good.
02:05:50.880 All right.
02:05:51.340 Let me tell you a little bit about our sponsor.
02:05:53.320 It's Relief Factor.
02:05:54.180 Remember the first time you ran down the hill as a kid, you were laughing, arms flailing,
02:05:58.820 not thinking about your knees at all.
02:06:00.180 Somewhere along the way, our knees started to go, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, slow down.
02:06:06.600 Now we just look at things and we're like, eh, not going to run down that.
02:06:09.720 There's a tweak in your shoulder, a stiffness in your back, or an ache that just won't quit.
02:06:13.620 Most people learn to shrink their lives to fit the pain.
02:06:16.560 They say, I'm done running down the hills, but that's not living.
02:06:18.860 That's just negotiating with the pain.
02:06:20.920 Relief Factor was created for people who want to tear up that contract.
02:06:23.960 It's a simple daily plan designed to address the root causes of inflammation so your body
02:06:30.960 can do what it was built to do, move freely, because the goal isn't just less pain.
02:06:35.020 It's getting back to the way you want to live your life, you know, the wind in your face
02:06:39.580 and freedom in your steps and the laughter that says, I'm still alive.
02:06:42.560 So go to relieffactor.com.
02:06:44.100 That's relieffactor.com, 800, the number four, relief.
02:06:49.880 Common sense ain't common anymore, is it?
02:06:53.960 Time to wake up and wrangle the sheep.
02:06:58.400 Glenn Beck continues next.
02:06:59.960 So if you happen to be watching on Blaze TV, what you're seeing is a video from Dearborn, Michigan, Saturday.
02:07:27.440 40,000 Shia Muslims took part in a religious procession commemorating the martyrdom of Imam Hussein,
02:07:35.380 the grandson of Muhammad, that was killed in the Battle of Karbala in 680 A.D.
02:07:40.440 Which civilization survives?
02:07:42.500 The one, that one, or the one that can't even tell you the president's name today?
02:07:46.260 Let's get them back.
02:07:46.680 Let's get them back.
